You know, I did a doubletake when you said she'd take a quilt for a
webpage. She showed a complete disrespect for what you do. It is
obvious she has no idea what goes into making a quilt. Shoot, even I
could design a crude webpage, what *she* does is no big deal.

I want a quilt, force one on me! (laugh)

Actually, I can't believe you made such an elaborate meal for her, next
time keep it just business. Contact your local community college,
whatever, get some kid to do it for you. I would definitely get busy
and decide how you want your page arranged before letting someone
just come in and do what they like. You know, like a notebook, plan
out what you want on the home page, next page, what you'd want there,
like that.

Good luck, and when it's up and running, please let us know, I for one am
dying to see the quilts.
